The two marine Brigantine class vessel cut through the water of Catus Island river like butter. Along the coast Oceanus could see several other building, and ships along the ports of the island. This wasn't Oceanus first time riding on a ship but he usually swim in water as not all ships he could fit on. But that wasn't important right now what was the fact the island from what Oceanus could see have several marine vessels along the port, and pirate ships.

What was even more stranger was no one was fighting as it is a pirate nature to fight marines, and it natural for marine to attack wanted pirates. The ship that Oceanus was on was approximately 300 meters away from the docks, and the water was as deep as 17 meters. The port was as wide as 45.72, and as long as 5 miles. The exact detail of the docks could be tell but it nearly as long as harbor.

As Oceanus stood along the deck of the ship too his right was the Cipher Pol Agent Kenny, and to his left was Cipher Pol Agent Rocket. They was approximately 5 meters away from Oceanus as they gave him room because they wasn't sure what his action was going to be so they kept there guard up.

The Rear Admiral Kimberly would have been the commanding officer of the ship but these black suit gentleman kill her, and took command of the remaining vessel left. Oceanus had determine that since she never attack them once they got on the ship that they was allies to her of some kind. But that doesn't matter as everything will be reveal soon enough at this sit down with the human scum in charge.

it wouldn't take long for the ship to arrive at shore, and Oceanus wouldn't do anything to place himself in danger just yet. He would wait for instruction from the 2 gentleman who stood in front of him. He was just 3 meter behind them as he stood along forecastle of the ship which is the front of the ship nearly.

The clouds above were brooding over the entire Island. Swelled up and prepared to burst. The Moon however would have light pierce through the clouds periodically. It having just reach it's peak around a hour ago. They had been travel from quite a while as it wasn't a quick journey between the two Island. They only got here within a day because the weather was on their side. The waters were still calm and sailing to and from the island were easy at this point in time. At the docks there was a fleet of ships. Their size and purpose varied and the only similarity was the Jolly Rogers on each one of them. They belonged to the Supernova known as Lady Diana. She was the sole reason this Island had become so populated in recent months. Breathing life into this place as she planned to do with Alabasta. Though it was late the city was not sleep but rather busy. So many things were being done to ensure the plans of lady Diana would be executed. Oceanus simply due to being in the News Coo also was someone that could be placed within her plans. He wasn't the only one though. Even before the challenge given out by her fellow Supernova,Soju, she had been amassing a large force under her banner. The others that were mentioned within the News Coo had been sent a message to join here on her Island. She only knew the one that went to Le didn't make it. This place was densely populated. Her crew and others under here were everywhere. To tell the difference you would simply need to look at them. Unlike other crews a tattoo wasn't what was used to let you know they belonged to her. A brand on their skin was in some visible spot. Her crew was also compromised of different races except Minks.

"Lady Diana is already back on the Island. We will make contact with someone from here crew upon arrival. And they will take us to her." Kenny would say as the ships began to pull closer and closer to the docks.

"Any questions, Fish-boy?" Rocket would add in. If he had any questions he would need to ask them now. They couldn't answer everything but if they could answer something they would. If this played out how Lady Diana wanted or if it didn't these two would still be paid. They didn't care about the ordeal at all honestly, as they weren't paid to do such a thing.

The View

There was a lot to see, and a whole lot to proceeds. You see Oceanus just arrive in enemy territory, and that means he was under the care of this Super Nova. He understood if he refuse the Super Nova that chances of him escaping is low. Well for some reason that excited him his blood was boiling his adrenaline was pumping, and he had the urge to kill.

The smart comment from the human filth didn't help in fact it nearly till him over the edge. Letting out a brief chuckle as he begin to relax he respond to the monkey comment as he said,"Oh did the Monkey learn a new word today?Wait don't answer that just do your job, and leave the grown up talking too the Adults." As Oceanus talk he had carefully watch the human dogs just in case they may try something he would try to react in timely manner.

Currently Oceanus ready to meet this Super Nova if she had this many ships in harbor, and Marines willing obeying her orders. That must mean that she have ton of beli to secure the island of Alabasta to be frank more then she needed. Oceanus was wondering if she was willing to part ways with a good some of her beli. Working for free isn't something Oceanus would ever do believe me he would rather die then work for a small amount of beli.

Oceanus would await for the instructions of the CP8 he knew they would arrive soon. So he was prepare to move should he had to in order to meet the Super Nova.

"Tch." He'd smack his lips at the comment made by Oceanus. He was skilled enough, both of them were, and if they wanted to they could kill him here and now. He would not show his anger though and would let it pass. It was partly his fault that he got worked up about all of this. Soon the ship would dock and disembarking would be the next thing for the three of them to do. If Oceanus didn't want to follow them or deal with Lady Diana now was the best time for him to escape. The waters weren't being watched at this moment, nor watching him. Those at the docks working were focusing more on their tasks at hands. One thing could be noticed and that was how someone of the works weren't exactly a species. A multitude of things that usually weren't anything special had been "humanized" and were walking around and helping out. If you looked around you'd be able to spot the sign that let you know what town this was. Whiskey Peak. It was the only town on this Island and if you thought the docks looked packed going deeper into the town, even at this time of day, would let you know this place was not short on people. Those that mainly worked at the docks that were born alive were Fishman, and a couple Minks. It was set up this way simple due to how powerful those two races could be. Minks with their electro could be used to combat enemies that used the water to their advantage. Fishman also served in that way but were the first response team if someone was to try and leave the Island or invade. Docking their ships being something they easily could do, without a ship. The Two CP agents weren't interested in the docks, neither should Oceanus. Their destination was deeper into the town. "Don't fall to behind." One of the agents would say if Oceanus was with them. If he followed them one would walk behind Oceanus whilst the other lead the way. Fishman a the dock would nob their head in respect to the Wotan, simply due to his size. Yeah, there were a few that didn't like the mixed bread but they didn't show it. Those that admired the sheer size of him would acknowledge him. Wotan or just a Large Fishman was the thought they had. They were on the left side of the river, so the left side of Whiskey Peak as a whole. There were a couple ways to cross the river to get to the other side if you wanted to. Boat, swim, and the bridge were the main three used. There weren't anything within the waters to worry about unless you were afraid of Territorial Sea Slugs.

"This is the first time I've honestly seen so many people of different tribes getting along." One of the agents would comment as they walked through the town. It seemed the city was one big party from the decorations hung up on buildings and the people merry making around. The Agents were a bit put off about the living objects that were around, finding it a bit creepy. Even though they both had been here before they just didn't like the whole idea of having such things move. The deeper they got into the city and to their destination the more the merry making increased ten fold. They'd stop if Oceaus was still with them once they arrived to the large cactus like mountain. There were multiple entrances into the mountain but only one was open at this moment. Without any delay they'd lead Oceanus inside and there you'd see that the entire mountain was hollowed out. It was as if there was another city within the mountain, but the inhabitants didn't call it that. This was simple the mansion of Lady Diana. The layout of the place was more similar to that of Kano rather than the rustic and western feel Whiskey town gave. But that was mainly due to Lady Diana being from that country rather than this Island she procured.

"So how in the hell do we find her? This place is massive." One of the Agents would say as he looked around. The mount of buildings within this place, high and low, were on better quality than those outside. the mountain.

"I just called her." The other Agent would say after he hung up his den den mushi. He didn't understand why his partner was acting like this, but he needed to stop. They still were dealing with a Pirate, and both weren't a joke. Though Oceanus may be someone they could handle it wouldn't be a cake walk if he wanted to fight them. There was a reason the World Government declared him dangerous. And with Lady Diana wanting him also made them also realize she may also know this. There were with a large spacious area were a couple people were shattered in. People came and went from this area and only those three needed to stay in it. Mainly because the guards within this area did not let them go deeper into the area. This was Lady Diana's mansion after all. And even though she called them to come they didn't have permission to go any further than they already had. The Guards were simple suits of armor, Lady Diana's creation, and would fight regardless who was the attacker.

The amount of time that would transpire would be around fifteen minutes in the area they were in. The sound of music would be heard and something, like glitter, began to rain from the sky. And from the sky as well someone would drop down, having road on what seemed to be a flying carpet. They jumped high up but seemed to not be damaged from the fall.

She had long golden hair, fox ears, and two golden tails. His attire consisted of a simple kimono and also a monocle. She was not short at all as she was around 13' tall. She looked down at the CP agents and up at Oceanus. The distance between them was close to a meter. She had no fear of the distance that was there nor should they, unless they had ill-will. If a fight needed to be down she would deal with them all by showing them the power of a King Queen felt like. A wrath that none of them could withstand at all. This Mink was Lady Diana.

"Hi, Hi." She didn't open up with anything other than that and a gentle smile.

Why?

Oceanus had no attention of leaving this island just yet. He was here to meet Lady Diana after all she did send him such a important invitation which a extended VIP escort. How could he leave without meeting her? As the ship docked Oceanus had follow the duo who recently saved him off the ship. He wasn't too please at the Cipher Pol Agent who position himself behind him about 3 meter.

That says a lot for the duo as it seems like they consider Oceanus either a threat or prisoners. Regardless whenever he want to leave he will leave right out the front door whether they want too or not. More importantly as Oceanus follow the duo he could see two distinct races one was Fishman, and the other he wasn't too sure. But they characteristics was similar to mammals that didn't matter Oceanus didn't like them either way. He only had the most respect for his race, and a couple of people who was apart of his organization.

As they walk Oceanus lock his eyes with a few people of his race. As he continue to walk the other race he wasn't able to identified at first but they begin to look like someone from the Auction House back when he was a slave. After a few minutes he finally reach the conclusion that these people was apart of the mink race.

He remember having a faint runningwith one back when he was a slave not that he develop any feeling or significant memories just a faint memory of meeting one. He had chuckle at his on discovery it seems like his twisted child hood was had some value too it. The more he walk the more of his kind he seen, and that struck his nerve he didn't like seeing his people in slave but that couldn't be help. He didn't had the resources or the power to free his fellow people. Nor was he sure if they was here against there will from what he could see they seem like they was working by free will. But that could be just for show he begin to carefully watch for land marks. After all if things turn out bad he would need to escape this information would be usefully later on.

After a few minutes he would arrive at the mountain take note of this, and the path they took. He eagerly follow the leading agent into the rather spacious room fill with guards. After a few minutes the agents begin to talk once again nothing that bother Oceanus. He didn't mind waiting for this Super Nova after all she did kinda save him not that he couldn't save himself though. Being saved by someone else did give him a warm feeling.

But one minute turn too two minutes, and soon they had waited an entire fifteenth minutes. As soon as reach the 15 minutes mark distance music could be heard in the back ground then something like glitter begin to rain from the sky. Then someone flying on a carpet flow into the room then jump off the carpet, and landed gracefully onto the ground.

The remarkable thing was that the individual look actually beautiful he wasn't sure if he should be disgust or star struck. But them feeling faded once she spoke then gentleman smile at them. It took a minute for Oceanus to resigster the action. But ultimately he had respond,"Greeting Lady Diana." said Oceanus he didn't want to bombarded her with questions just yet you he had wanted to wait to see her reaction to the agent that successful deliver him to her.

He waited to see if she was nice to her employees or whom they where. All this information was needed in order to understanding his situation. Indeed after he had greet her a toothy smile he had send to her back in response to her smile.

"You are bigger than I expected. Are you mixed with something?" She'd ask him. She had many Fishman subordinates but no one near the size of Oceanus. He was massive and intimating, well just massive to her. Now she understood why the World Government wanted him placed within the News Coo as the guy seemed to someone that could prove a problem for the world in a couple years. She could just feel that about him. And that was one reason she wanted someone like him under her. When he answer her question or choose not to she would speak again.

"Well, follow me. We should talk someone more relaxing." Diana would say as her flying carpet would come down and she'd step on it. It had a cartoonish smile on it's face as it look at Oceanus. How this creature came to be was through her abilities, just like the other objects that acted and looked like the carpet. While on it it'd begin to levitate upward, she stopping when she was at a height she could look Oceanus in the face. She wasn't too close to him to do this but if she wanted to get close she could and would. But, she didn't want to since they were going to change the location. There was a staircase wide enough that even if there were five Oceanus' they could walk up it together without problem. "We wi-" Lady Diana would stop as one of the CP agents would clear his throat.

"Before we go....can you sign this?" He'd hold up what seemed to be a Wanted Poster. She would lower herself to grab it and once she had it she'd go back up. "One day you will even have World Government agents wanting your autograph!" She would say as she would show Oceanus her wanted poster before she signed it.

WANTED

AliveDiana D. ------ ● Lady Diana179,000,000 - bountyRoyalty turned bad. She was has done things that can put many Pirates to shame. Almost everyone within the Grandline knows about this young Pirate, and many fear her.

She would sign it and drop it down to the ground for the CP agent to pick it up. "Next time I will kill you if you interrupt me okay?" Diana would suddenly say as he picked up the Wanted poster. He felt a chill go down his spin after she would say that. But, he couldn't miss the chance to get her to sign it now. He did this a lot. He couldn't lie that he was attracted to the Mink but he had a hobby on collecting sign bounty posters. It was weird but something he just did.

Diana would then go back to speak, but she moved as she did so. Well, the carpet would move up the stairs. "As I was saying. Before we talk about what I wanted you here for. I need to know more about you. So tell me Oceanus what is your story? Oh, and I don't mind if it is long or not. We have a good twenty minutes before we make it to the top." She'd say talking about the top of the staircase. In total there were seven levels and to get to the top. They were taking the stairs but could've taken the steam elevators that you could spot in the distance that were on the side of the mountain's walls.

Exchange of Information

"You are bigger than I expected. Are you mixed with something?"Oceanus had smirk at Lady Diana question as he replied back in a timely manner of about 2- 3 seconds he simply said,"I am all Fishman Little Lady."Even though what he said wasn't true he didn't acknowledge his giant heritance due to his twisted life as a slave.

Several seconds later Lady Diana had said,"Well, follow me. We should talk somewhere more relaxing." Oceanus had nodded his head in approval he didn't care if he talk with her right here in front of her goons or a more private place. If she didn't have what Oceanus wanted then this is a waste of both of there precious time. But Oceanus would play along because she pull some major strings just to see him even though he dislike her race .

As of now he was giving her the benefit of the doubt as she earn that much. Oceanus carefully watch the carpet like cartoon retrieve it master. It was weird to see something as that with a face, and it could float. More importantly Oceanus never seen such a thing before every in his life. He had chalk it down as either apart of her abilities or some curse item. But that wasn't important what was the fact that the Super Nova crept closer into Oceanus personal space she was about 4 meters away from his face,and it seems like she was examine him.

Before Oceanus could talk the Super Nova begin to speak she had said,"We wi-" unfortunately she was rudely interrupt by one of the agents from Ciper Pol 8. The reason was the agent wanted an autograph. Oceanus had chuckle at Lady Diana comment about World Government Official would one day want his autograph. The nerve or balls someone would have to had to ask such a dumb question but it couldn't be helped after all the agent was just a silly monkey.

Unfortunately for agent he was chastise by the Super Nova about interrupting her. Shortly after Oceanus follow up the massive stair case which was made of stone it is freakish wide, and as they walk she question Oceanus about his life. Oceanus had lick his lips as he continue to walk forward , and follow the Super Nova whom was just 5 meters ahead of him, and was flying at his chest area.

Oceanus replied, and said,"Mhm.... not many dogs.... I mean Minks ask about my personal life. I will give you a short, and sweet version. I was born, and sold into slavery, and escape slavery. I escape by simply sinking the ship, and from there I live by terrorizing all passing ships for food, and pleasure. Shortly after I learn some usefully skills I met a merfolk then a storm came, and toss me to Alabasta the END. Now what with the flying cartoon carpet, and World Government official listening to ya every order, and excuse me but you aren't treating my brothen badly now would you?"

The whole entire time Oceanus talked he had carefully watch the Super Nova. He wasn't sure how she would react to his question or his poor excuse of his story. After he finish talking he had waited 2 seconds as he said ,"Oh Yeah I am a racism bastard due to my terrible sob of a story. But don't worry I am slowly growing to deal with my hate for other races with the help of Life ."

Oceanus couldn't help but chuckle at his last comment he was being an ass but what do you expect when you someone of his level of genius.... well not genius but the opposite of that try to have an intelligent conversation with him.

Pawn or Death

"Oh." Is all Diana would say at the response she would receive. Her kindness had been mistaken for weakness. That is what she felt about how Oceanus spoke to her. She didn't show any signs of disgust about the situation. Rather she was saddened that he didn't see the bigger picture, or a picture at all. Being fearless within this world did have advantages, but also was hazardous. Honestly, she didn't even expect this. She threatened to kill a CP agent for interrupting her. So what would she do to someone that called her a dog? She was a Mink and didn't hold any resentment for her race but she was not a dog. Being called such left a real bad taste in her sweat mouth. Her face had gotten a bit twisted. Similar to a face that you'd make when you smell a odor of something rancid. She would relax herself as he spoke more and more. She did impose her will outward right at the moment he finished speaking for the second time. Speaking how someone of her standing would speak to someone like Oceanus. Though, she spoke only loud enough for Oceanus and the CP agents to hear her. A lot more people felt what was born from their short talk.

The CP agents during this entire time walked behind Oceanus, less than a meter. They shouldn't have expected this to go well at all. And with how Oceanus was talking they felt things were getting to a place that wouldn't be pretty. They prepared themselves for whatever was to happen. Due to the agreement they had with Diana they would assist her if taking down Oceanus was what needed to be done. They knew that Diana had enough power to kill Oceanus. She probably had enough to level the entire Island if she truly wanted to. But honestly speaking they didn't know how this would unfold. Two Pirates that have shown to have issues with their anger were now talking to each other, and one was being rude. So, seeing the other act in turn wouldn't be a surprise. But with harsh words comes physical actions. The Agents were nervous about all of this. All they knew was that if Oceanus did anything ill-mannered or not to their liking their quick response would leave a hole in the creature. A movement that allowed them to move as if they vanished being what would be implemented to make their impact and attack come quickly and before. At the time Oceanus had finished his story and before he started his final comment they made it to the second level. It was the quickest to reach out of all of the other levels. But there was a question that should be asked. And that was if any of them could actually handle Diana if it called for it. In this new age there are only three individuals considered Supernova, and at the top is Diana. The CP agents couldn't even withstand the presence of her impeding wrath and would succumb to it's effects, just like anyone else.

What is your story?

That simple question is something that she had asked every single person that worked under her. Whether they were within her crew or allied with them. She had heard a lot of things. But, this wasn't the first time she was truly disappointed with the person she spoke with. Not really with the story as if it was expanded on it could've been great. She knew of people that didn't want to share their story, as it was too much for them. Or they just didn't want to speak about it for whatever reason, and she respected that. What she didn't respect or appreciate was someone disrespecting and wasting her time. But, maybe she was doing that. She thought about if she should've just cut right to the point instead of taking this talk somewhere else. No, that couldn't it. She saved his life. How could she possibly be the one wasting anyone's time? As his life, in her mind, belonged to her now. She could've just let him succumb to his fate. Maybe that is what should've happened.

So many thoughts went through her mind after Oceanus had spoken. Saying something in response was something she felt she needed to do. Letting silence fill the air for too long just wasn't what she did. As he did ask her three poorly spoken questions. She would give him a response but giving him a answer he'd like was something she didn't care for, nor every will. "As you must've seen when you came onto the Island. I call them Homies. The roam around here like other that work under me. " She wouldn't say it but they were a creation from a Devil Fruit that she had occurred during the time they first started coming out. She enjoyed the powers it bestowed onto her and is what catapulted her to her status today. If you want to compare her skill with it to others she was almost in a league of her own. She'd look over her shoulder back at Oceanus as she spoke. Just how just a few seconds passed when Oceanus spoke the same was for Diana.

"And I speak to your soul now, boy. What do you mean by "brothen"? You talking about those that belong to your race? If so...who the fuck cares how I treat them. Or anyone else for that matter?" She spoke like she did before to the CP agent. Her switch being flipped.

Answering the call? 24 days before makes it to cactus isle on his own ship

The three ciphers stopped just outside the abandoned warehouse district in Alubarna, with a strong sense of trepidation as they approached. A strong stench of what could only be described as human death permeated the air and everything around The Doctor's alleged lair. A stack of smoke whisped into the air, with an eery orange glow coming from a lone building. The three ciphers approached her front door, two stayed back with guns drawn. The third activated his kenbusho haki approached the door with light knock. Lina who was wearing an apron covered in blood approached the door while taking off her protective gear, to let an air of death hit the men.

The all winced for a moment, just long enough for a dazed Lina to come out and greet them. " Hello, is there something I can help you with"? The sound of a gun being cocked brought her to attention. The cipher to the right was shaking as he aimed his weapon at the girl, trying hard to to pull the trigger with his shaky trigger finger. The lead from what Lina could tell grabbed the barrel of his associate and shoved it to the sky as the other got him into a headlock. " Fucking calm down! If she doesn't kill us, the lady would"! Lina tilted her head to the side and got a closer look at them. They looked familiar,but she couldn't quit put a name to who they were or rather, what their affiliation was. Sunglasses, suits that looks as if they were tailored to their very bodies, and clean cut hair. She grinned and said, " Ciphers huh? I assume you got a purpose here, right"? She gaze them a gesture of the arm to come inside. The lead cipher shook his head vehemently and said, " no no no no we'd like you to come with us! LA-Lay---urgh Lady diana requests an audience with you. Lina askr, of the News coo".

"Lina tilted her head the other way with her arms crossed, " Who"? The other two left Lina and the lead cipher behind as he explained the situation. " So this Diana lady--pers'n is import--ant, yes"? The cipher bowed and said, " That she is element of chaos, Miss Lina Askr. Please just come with us". She crossed her arms and said, " This place is crawling with marines, can't do anything anymore without being chased down and shot at". The woman grabbed her cloak, den den mushi, and followed the skittish officer whose wide eyes expressed a sense of disbelief that confounded him. He tried to walk behind her, but was urged on ahead due to lina not having any idea where they were going. The 4 all met up within the hour, headed toward the east from the Nerfereti river. The boat was rather small, just around 20 meters, with a small crew of fishmen and minks who manned the ship.

Lina lied the wall on the elevated poop deck, in front of the navigator who worked through the night to get them to their destination. She looked up at his markedly furry face, even more so than Jackal. He gave her a smile accentuated by the moonlight to highlight his animalistic features. " Yes lesser mink, how may I help you"? Lina sipped her juice and said, " Why do you furry guys call us lesser minks"? He looked down on her and scratched his chin. "My apologies lesser mink, for I do not mean to imply you are a lesser being. It's just our way of describing your lack of fur, just as you focus on our fur. Does that make sense"? Lina paused and got a good look at him with a grin. " Tch that jackal never told me that, what a butthead". The mink looked down on her with a befuddled expression and grinned again. " Lina averted her eyes and said, " it means he could have told me what it meant". The mink laughed and said, " Yes what a dairy-air head...no what a bottom...butt head...yes butt head". The ciphers never took their eyes off the girl, but kept their distance as she jived much better with fishmen and minks much better than human beings.

15 minutes behind Crow's meeting DianaUpon reaching the dock at Dawn, just a bit of light peeked through the clouds overhead. The mink and fishmen all said bye to Lina in a synchronized fashion and the girl waved by enthusiastically as the ciphers begrudgingly waited for her. " If yer done miss askr, we must get going. You, make the call and let Lady Diana know she has arrived before letting her into her manor". Lina rolled her eyes and approached the agents who formed a wall before her and the rest of the docks. her stomached growled and she said, " Can I get some french fries while we wait suppppper hungry"?

The group ended up stopping by a local tavern to grab a bite to eat. "How may I help you lesser mink"? Lina rubbed her chin and said, "30 orders of french fries please". The mink woman gasped, which made lina stammer, " okay okay 50 please"! The ciphers frowned upon the girl, for they couldn't get a read on her. Here was a woman who slaughtered dozens of their associates, killed hundreds of marines, had a lab of death. Yet she seemed to have a switch that turned her into an air head at random. " Miss askr, we just got confirmation, you're allowed to see Lady Diana". Lina nodded as she began to make the bags of fries float around her. " Do ya want some guys"? The two ciphers usually trailing her indulged in the offer while the leader actually walked ahead of them because of how pissed he was. His face was crinkled from the expression he was making, that made the local fishmen and minks all hide as he passed through. While Lina and the other two ciphers had become friends who bonded over french fries, apparently all three being officiandos. "Stupid bastards".

Lina paused before the manor of Diana, which for all in intensive purposes, was its own bustling city within a massive mountain. She stared up as the wind blew and her eyes traveled up the earthen structure. "Lady diana is impressive, huh? Little girl"? Lina responded by just eating another french fry and gestured to wanting to enter, much to the cipher's dismay. "Just a warning kid, don't treat the lady like that.", he said, which made lina pause. " We have to clean up after your mess and the people of this isle will suffer if she loses it. Be respectful".

Lina paused and gave it thought, wondering what respect meant in this case. " Well I'll try. Sheesh other people are freaks though. I hope she's not as bad as Mo, Simon, or uncle beckham". The three were stunned to hear drop such names the vice admiral or Mo, but they kept their cool as best they could. " Just don't say stupid things that come to mind okay"? She nodded while popping another french fry in her mouth. Much like the Lady Diana, a cipher came up to her asking for her autograph. " Sure uh I guess"? The girl signed skip with a little heart, and the man ran off like he hit the jackpot. " Next time don't mind that idiot", he'd say with an air of exasperation. Lina however just kept popping more french fries into her mouth as they ascended the stair case. Unlike Oceanus and Diana, this group did not go all that slow. The ciphers urged her along as she tried to stop and take a look at the all the new sights and sounds she was wholely unfamiliar with. "No mam, keep on keeping on now", he'd say while popping a french fry as well. With the annoyed lead cipher and the nervous subordinates, they were practically jogging up the stairs while Lina floated nonchalantly up the stair case following them. It would not be long before they'd see the shadow of the lumbering Oceanus looming in the distance and graceful Diana and all her fluttering tails dancing around them. However the cipher stopped his group from making any sudden movements.

He'd pull out a baby den den and ask the other ciphers escorting the Lady Diana and Oceanus, if now was a good time to introduce Lina askr. The veteran Cipher knew when things were going sour and he feared showing the Lady an erratic person like Lina would upset her and throw her over the edge.

Oceanus had carefully listen to the Super Nova words as he follow her up the stairs. He couldn't help but look behind him at Kenny, and Rocket the duo Cipher Agents that retrieve him earlier from the clutches of the Prison. Now that he thinks about it the Rear Admiral from earlier works for the World Government, and so did they. So why did they kill her? Is the question that played in his mind.

He knew from now on he had to be carefully in how he precede the wrong thing could trigger an all out war even though he loves bloodshed. He had reach the conclusion that neither the Super Nova or the agents could be fully trusted not to mention he was out number so that didn't increase his chances in coming out on top. Then it the fact that he didn't know about the Super Nova capabilities but he knew whatever it was it had something to do with the things she called Homies as that isn't normal from what Oceanus can tell.

Regardless none of that is important right now what was is the fact that the Super Nova disrespect Oceanus. At first he had a face expression of smirk as he lick his lips but after 2 seconds he regain control of the urge to defend his brethren, and himself. After few more seconds Oceanus replied, and said,"I guess it doesn't matter." Oceanus really didn't have nothing else to say to her because he could say the wrong thing, and trigger the Super Nova, and that isn't something he wanted to do just yet. He wanted to under stand why did she go through all this effort to bring him here, and why are the guys in black suits following her around like they are her bitch.

Letting out a sigh he had grin as he look back at agent who was about 1 meter, and said,"Mr. Agent is your assignment to guard her or watch me or both ?" He spoke in teasing manner he enjoy fucking with people. He wasn't too sure about the female mink it seem as if she had similar traits as Oceanus had. He would return his gaze forward at the word "Mr." What too be expect of this meeting Oceanus had no clue but he was sure that it had something to do with him, and rejecting the deal didn't seem like something she would go for then again he could be wrong. For now he had too wait for the group to arrive at the meeting place.

Pawn or Death

Diana did not allow anyone to travel within her manor freely that she didn't well trust. Hence the reason she greated Oceanus and the CP agents personally, though she could've done by sending a homie or grunt. Trust might be the wrong word to use. As it was more like you had to pay a price in order to move around this place freely. So, when Lina and the other set of CP agents they were followed by one of the suits of armor. The others would go to the entrance and close the door, as that was the last of the guests. Well, the last of the one for today.

"Nah, you shitty fish. We are here because we need to observe the Shic-"

Puru Puru Puru

Rocket would answer his Den Den Mushi before he could finish speaking. "No, you idiot. Just bring her up to the spot, we are on a staircase. What is the point of doing this introduction right now." Rocket was acting stranger and stranger. And each time he spoke Diana felt a bit of bliss, but wouldn't show it. She would rise higher while on the carpet, but would drop something onto the staircase as she did so. There walk had gotten boring and full of tension, so it needed to end. They needed to reach the top floor and take care of business instead of having small talk right now. What she did was demonstrate a bit of her power as the staircase seemed to come to life. A face being in the spot she had dropped the piece of her soul into the staircase. This wasn't to attack anyone at all, she could've done that in many different ways. This was to get the walk portion of this over with and get everyone to the main event. The staircase becoming something like a escalator. From her new height she also would spot the other guest down the staircase. They were late. But, the best always came last. She would not stay with them as the stairs moved but rather go right to the top. Even with the staircase now moving it would take a few minutes for them to reach the top. To be exact it would take twenty before they made it. During this time preparing for what was to come should be done.

Once at the top the place she laid her head and also the place she conducted most of her business would be seen. It was beautiful and truly showed her connections to Kano. Outside the buildings on this level there were no humans, minks, Fishman, or any other race out and about. Everything was more animated than anything. The first thing that would be seen in a door, that spoke. It was the only entrance into the building that normal folk allowed to come here could use. It being where Lina and Oceanus needed to go through. But it won't open till both were present before it. Those being the orders given to it by Diana, who had already made it inside. When they'd arrive to the door it would ask them a simple question.

"What do you want?"

It wasn't a trick question or something to be played with like before, as there could be consequences to not answering.

Curiosity kills da cat?

An feeling of trepidation washed over the young swordswoman who had up until that moment,been much too relaxed for her own good. The ciphers jerked at the sight of her expression changing. Much like a switch her head jerked when the doors slammed behind her. Her hairs stood on edge because she usually could at least tell when something was there, but this time it took her completely by surprise. She scratched in her ear to see if maybe there was gunk. The other guards who had taken fighting stances with sweat beating down their brows all let out a sigh of relief at the same time. Lina looked at them and giggled with a smug expression, " scared of lil ol me"?

The cipher guards all coughed and moved on while she lingered for just a moment. Her eyes had a soft blue aura hue which allowed her to see a multitude of other beings in the distance. It befuddled her to see two extra beings with what seemed to be the same aura as the giant fox lady in front of her.

That's when it dawned on her, "giant fox lady, oh and a big fishy guy"? Her body tensed up and her eyes were lit with excitement. She kicked a little bit faster and floated over the staircase toward Oceanus and the fox who had pulled ahead. Although she stopped when she saw something move in the distance from the fox, something that made the floor glow her her same aura. Her eyes bulged, for she was completely intrigued. Lina didn't rush, but she did glide through the air toward Diana. However she did stop to smell the metaphorical roses. Eyeing her now mechanical yet alive staircase. " What the heck", before turning to Oceanus. " Hi my name's Lina, let's hurry to see the cool fox lady"!

Lina would say before zipping to the summit, where she'd be greeted by a simple hallway. It was roughly 10 meters wide and 30 meters long down on corridor. The door at the end made of some elegant looking wood more crisp and cleanly carved than some of the most luxurious marine battleships. Solemn eyes met her amazed gaze and asked,

Door wrote:"What do you want?"

Lina coughed into her hand and said, " I wanna speak to the cool fox lady and meet Lady Diana! These cipher guys made her sound cool"! All the ciphers, including the ones escorting Oceanus said in unison, " NO YOU FOOL THAT WAS HER"!

"Nah, you shitty fish. We are here because we need to observe the Shic-"

Puru Puru PuruOceanus had decide as the agent talked on the den den mushi he had decide whom he shall kill first if he ever had the chance, and that was the shitty human name Rocket .Oceanus look back at Rocket as he continue to move forward along the stair case at decent speed. Normally Oceanus would have some snappy come back but he decide to not entertain the poor foolish human who was near death.

More importantly the word ,"Shic" the incomplete word that more then likely had meaning that soon Oceanus would learn. As the retard of a human continue to speak Oceanus had no choice but to listen due to being just a few meters in front him. Oceanus carefully listen to the agent conversation as he agent spoke he into den den mushi,"No, you idiot. Just bring her up to the spot, we are on a staircase. What is the point of doing this introduction right now."

Regardless that wasn't important what was is the fact that the staircase just boom to life, and someone that was important as Oceanus himself was here . What was more interesting was the source of the stair case coming alive was the female mink supernova. Oceanus didn't know how he felt about this development he had felt oddly weak.

The cartoon staircase begin to carried them up into the stairs, and soon after it begin to move he was join by some shitty human who could fly kinda like the female super nova on the magically carpet. The woman simply said," Hi my name's Lina, let's hurry to see the cool fox lady"! If Oceanus had to say he was in wrong world the world of Casper the friendly ghost.

The events thus far was weird but what Lina said was true they did have to hurried in order to find out what this meeting was about. It took moving staircase long from Oceanus arrive in fact it only took half of the time as Oceanus was moving along the stair case as it move itself as well. Finally at the top Oceanus took a small 50 seconds break before walking down the elegant hallways of the building. He soon reach the door where the human name Line was located, and at the same time he had reach it the door spoke, and said," What do you want?"

After Lina spoke, and the rude out burst of the ciper pol agents Oceanus had chuckle a bit then glance at the door he said,"I want fame, resource{cp},beli, and power to save my race from the clutches of fools like those behind me." Oceanus had split on the ground just he was sure to spit in the direction of the wall so that he didn't spit on anyone or cause a fight to break out.

As of now Oceanus was on his best behaviour not because that he was scared but because he had no clue on the course of events that may change his life forever.

Pawn or Death

After the door had it's outburst it would listen to what Oceanus would say. From serious to dull was the expression it had. "Yeahhh. I don't know about all that, but go on in. Head alllll the waaayy to the next door that looks like me. But is made of iron." It'd add before moving back and reveal another hallway. It was around forty meters long and half as wide. There were no doors whatsoever on the walls, nor windows. Only thing that littered the walls were pictures of Diana and mirrors. Being as tall as it was wide the pictures and mirrors were placed almost all the way to the top.

Before they'd even arrive to the iron door a group of individuals were visible. One even rivaled the size of Oceanus. In total there were over fifty individuals standing and waiting. They were like Oceanus and Lina as they weren't allied with Diana in anyway and were her quests on the Island. They though didn't have CP agents with them. Most would look and see them coming, well if they did, and would see the Agents. Noticing who they were due to their attire and the badges on their suits. No would say anything at this moment as they were waiting for Diana, or the door to the open.

Within the room Diana was preparing for everyone. She wasn't physically doing anything but sitting within her chair; but her homies were hard at work preparing for the guests waiting outside. She did have members of her crew within the room with her, but only two. They stood at her left and right. One was a member of the long leg tribe, whilst the other was a member of the dwarf tribe. The dwarf wasn't noticeable as he stood next to Diana's chair, but he was one of her strongest and most trusted. As you should never judge a book by it's cover whatsoever. Her chair stood high above the floor. She was on a suspended stage above this floor. It wasn't the largest but it was sturdy enough for her and those with her. Her chair wasn't like those that were below, as it was more of a throne.

There were enough chairs and table below that each person outside of the door could have their own personal seat. There was a table though that everyone would have to sit at that was within the center of the room. The two large individuals did have their own personal seat tailor to their height. There won't be exact dimensions for the room at this moment but it was spacious enough that double the amount of people outside of the room could move around in here freely. Even if combat was to take place.

Diana was above the ground around fifteen meters. And still the distance between her and the ceiling was double that. She had the suspended stage positioned toward the back of the room. So that she could clearly see over the table the guested would be sitting at. So she could speak and have all their eyes on her when she did so.

Diana would only have those waiting at the door wait till Oceanus and Lina would join up with them. Once it saw and was able to count everyone said to arrive it would open.

"COME IN! COME IN! FIND YOUR SEAT WITH YOUR NAME!" Is all it would say.
